A
We were the only family with children in the restaurant. Suddenly, my baby Erik became excited. I looked around and saw an old man with old clothes and dirty old shoes. His hair was unwashed. He was waving to my Erik.
“He might hurt my Erik,〞 I thought. Everyone in the restaurant looked at us and then at the man. Then we decided to leave. My husband went to pay the check and told me to meet him outside. The old man sat between the door and me.
As I walked closer to the man, I turned my back. Suddenly, Erik leaned over my arms, reaching with both arms in a baby’s “pick-me-up〞position. Before I could stop him, Erik had escaped from my arms to the man’s. At the moment a very old smelly man and a very young baby developed a kind of friendship.
Erik, in the act of total trust and love, laid his tiny head upon the man’s shoulder. The man closed his eyes, and I saw tears under his lashes. His aged hands were full of pain and hard labor, but he held my baby so gently. A moment later, the old man opened his eyes, passed me my baby and said, “God bless you, madam. You’ve given me the most precious gift.〞
I cried, with my face burning hot. A child saw a soul, but a mother saw only a suit of clothes.

When we hear the words “college students〞, we usually think of a young person between 18 and 22 years old. But in the U.S.A today, a college student often is much older. In fact, educators say in the next few years colleges and universities may have more older part-time students than traditional full-time younger students.
Educators report a big increase in the number of Americans who attend college and university classes in the evening or at night or weekends. Most of them are older than 25 years old and more have full-time or part-time jobs. Many are in their thirties or forties.
Why are so many people deciding to spend their time and money in order to continue their education? Most are doing it because they believe more education will help them to get a better job. Some are industrial workers whose factories have closed. They are learning new skills to prepare for other kinds of work. Some of the part-time students are not pleased with the jobs they have. They are studying for new ones. Some have retired (退休) and are looking for new kinds of work. Two of every three of the students older than 35 are women. Many of them are returning to school after years of staying at home to care for children.
Are older students good students? Most teachers say yes. They say older students really want to learn. They ask difficult questions and are not pleased with simple answers. They often get high grades.
65. It's said that in the next few years ____.
A. students in colleges and universities will be much older
B. full-time students in colleges and universities will be even younger
C. more American colleges and universities will take in part-time students equally
D. there will be more older students than younger ones in universities and colleges
66. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Most of the part-time students are without jobs.
B. Most of the part-time students are between 18 and 22.
C. Many Americans attend college or university classes in their spare time.
D. The number of students in colleges and universities has come down greatly.
67. Which of the following is one of the reasons why people decide to continue their education?
A. They believe in the saying “more education, better jobs〞.
B. They learn something new to keep up with the development of science.
C. They have already got new jobs because they are tired of their present jobs.
D. They are asked to return to colleges for further study by their original ones.
68. The writer writes the passage in the order of the answers to the questions “____〞.
A. how, what, how, why
B. what, how, why, how
C. why, how, what, how
D. how, what, why, how
C
Where is that noise coming from? Not sure? Try living with your eyes closed for a few years.
Blind people are better at locating sounds than people who can see, a new study says, without the benefits of vision the ears seem to work much better.
Previous studies have shown that blind people are better than others at reaching out and touching the sources of sounds that are close by. Researchers from the University of Montreal wanted to see if blind people were also better at locating sounds that are far away.
Twenty-three blind people participated in the study. All had been sightless for at least 20 years. Fourteen of them had lost their vision before age 11. The rest went blind after age 16. The experiment also included 10 people who could see but were wearing blindfolds〔遮眼布、眼罩〕.
In one task, volunteers had to pick the direction of a sound coming from about 3 meters away. When the sound was in front of them or slightly off center in front, both groups performed equally well.
When sounds came from the side or the back, however, the blind group performed much better than the blindfolded group. The participants who
had been blind since childhood did slightly better than those who lost their sight later.
Recognizing the locations of distant sounds can be a matter of
life-or-death for blind people, say the researchers. Crossing the street, for instance, is much harder when you can’t see the cars coming.
Still, the researchers were surprised by how well the blind participants did, especially those who went blind after age 16. In another experiment, the scientists also found that parts of the brain that normally deal with visual information became active in locating sound in the people who were blind by age 11. These brain parts didn’t show sound-location activity in the other group of blind people or in the sighted people. The scientists now want to learn more about the workings of brains of “late-onset〞 blind people.
69. The recent study shows blind people are better at telling _____.
A. the sources of loud sounds
B. the locations of distant sounds
C. the direction of sharp sounds
D. the distance
of a sound in front of them
70. Which of the following statement is true?
A. The researchers are quite sure about the workings of brains of “late-onset〞 blind people.
B. People who were blind before age 11 are better at crossing the street than those after 16.
C. Parts of the brain of those who went blind by age 11 became active in locating sound.
D. The blind folded performed better at locating sounds in front.
71. If people were asked to tell the direction of a sound from the side, who would perform best?
A. Those who are blind.
B. Those who have gone blind since children.
C. Those who went blind at age 16.
D. Those who are blindfolded.
72．What do we know about that parts of brain dealing with visual information are active in locating sounds?
A．This happens in almost all the testers.
B．This only occurs in the people who were blind after age 16.
C．It remains nothing new to the scientists any more.
D．It remains a mystery why it is so.
D
“Time is a problem for children,〞 states a news report for a new Swiss watch. Children in some countries “learn time slowly〞 because “they don’t wear watches〞and “parents don’t really know how to teach them time.〞 The children grow up with this handicap and become adults and then can’t get to work on time. Is there an answer to this
problem? Of course it’s the Flik Flak, made by a famous Swiss watch company.
The Flik Flak is being marketed as something teaching watch for children aged 4 to 10. The watch itself does not teach children how to tell time, of course; it merely “takes their imagination〞 by presenting the “hour〞 hand as a beautiful red girl named Flak and the “minute〞 hand as a tall blue boy named Flik. Flik points to related “blue〞 minutes on the dial, while Flak points to “red〞 hour numbers. The characters and colors combined with parental help, are supposed to teach young children how to tell time.
The watch comes equipped with a standard battery and a nylon band (尼龙表带). Peter Lipkin, the United States sales manager for the Flik Flak, calls it “childproof: if it gets dirty you can throw the whole watch in the washing machine.〞 The product is being sold in select department stores in Europe, Asia and the United States for a suggested price of $25. Parents who buy the watch may discover that it is one thing to tell time; it’s quite another for them to be on time.
73.From the news report we know that ______.
A. parents are patient when teaching children time
B. parents have little idea of how to teach children time
C. children are likely to learn time quickly
D. children enjoy wearing the Flik Flak watch 74.The author doesn’t seem to believe ______.
A. children will be on time if they have not learnt how to tell time
B. a Flik Flak can help parents teach their children how to tell time
C. the Flik Flak can take children’s imagination
D. children usually have trouble telling time if they don’t wear watches
75.The underlined word handicap (Para. 1) means ______.
A. displeasure
B. discouragement
C. disappointment
D. disadvantage
76.The United State sales manager calls the new watch “childproof〞because ______.
A. it is designed to teach children to be on time
B. it proves to be effective in teaching children time
C. it is made so as not to be easily damaged by children
D. it is the children’s favorite watch
E
